Anybody had a 200mA drain on Td5 , when Fuse 9 (eng compt) removed the drain goes.
It's listed on the fuse box cover as 30A Trailer but on Rave it's listed as 25A Fuel burning heater?
The fuse in the box is a 30A!

This one, but looking at the wiring diagram it would suggest yours is correct as it leads to the FBH and has a 30A fuse in it, so going to try disconnecting the FBH and see if the drain goes, thanks for your help:)

Right sorted it!
Fuse 9 illustrated as trailer elecs in eng comp fuse box was correct even though the wiring diagram on Rave shows it going off to the FBH (not fitted).
Whilst looking around under the back I found some towing loom cut and shoved above the fuel tank although the other wiring to both sockets was intact and connected.
The discarded loom went up into the vehicle with the other loom so I removed the O/S upper cluster only to discover a load of corroded scotch locks:doh: connected to a still live trailer light control unit which clicked in sync with the loom being moved, chopped it all out, insulated it all and re connected the genuine elecs and now only have a 30mA drain and all the towing elecs work.
